7th CCL in Belo Horizonte, Brazil from 2-8 July 2016

Are you an artist working creatively with code and digital media with an interest in movement? Then come join us for this 7th Choreographic Coding Lab where movement hackers and practitioners will be gathering to discuss and work on projects, ideas and challenges in a peer-to-peer setting.

The Choreographic Coding Lab (CCL) format offers unique opportunities of exchange and collaboration for digital media ‘code savvy’ artists who have an interest in translating aspects of choreography and dance into digital form and applying choreographic thinking to their own practice. CCLs are an outcome of Motion Bank (a four-year research project of The Forsythe Company focused on the creation of digital dance scores with guest choreographers.

The CCLs are enriched by interactions with experienced choreographers and members of the Motion Bank team. Participation in the CCL is free, but applicants are asked to propose starting points and ideas. Collaborative teams involving coders, choreographers, object, sound and filmmakers are encouraged to apply. A selection will be made to ensure the right balance of participants and what they bring to the lab including specialized software and hardware for working with movement data. Sesc Palladium will provide the space and some basic equipment.

The on-line Sesc Palladium application form (in Portuguese only) is available here. Deadline for applications will be June 16, with selected participants notified by June 20, 2016.
